Pension sharing order and NHS pension

Tjc1305

I have just received details of my ex husbands pension sharing order, requesting me to state which pension provider I want to set it up with. I have been working with NHS for last 6 years and that is my only pension. I believe I can’t transfer to a NHS pension.
I’m not sure what I should do. Any help or advise appreciated. TIA

Not clear on the situation? You are required to share your pension with your ex? Why would you want to transfer it? Just provide them with the details of your NHS pension as requested.

I have received my ex husbands pension in our divorce settlement. I only have a NHS pension, which I started 6 yrs ago. What do I do or how do proceed with my ex husbands pension?

You are required to share your pension with your ex

The boot seems to be on the other foot - the OP is to receive a share of the ex-spouse's pension and her own scheme (NHS) won't accept it?

She might want to consult an Independent Financial Adviser.

Or a stakeholder might accept a transfer in
